Homeward Bound

Well well, I'm home at last. Finals are now over and I am no longer a Freshman at SU. It's very relieving to have finished the academic year with decent grades. I'll probably be pulling a 3.4 GPA for this year. I'm very happy with that. The Spanish final was really easy actually, and we got A's on it. It was sad to leave everyone, and there were even some people that were tearing up upon saying goodbye to others. A certain miss Erica Reed would be a prime example haha. It took forever to clean out my room. I had one of the most cluttered rooms in the hall, most likely, and it was very dirty too. I found so many things that I had previously thought to be lost. Not to mention Andrew left some of his stuff there for me to take care of. I wonder if he honestly forgot to take it home. Oh well, it's mine now I suppose. I scored a sweet desk rack thingy. Should prove useful next year.

I went over to Kody's this past weekend for his birthday. I had a pretty good time. I was actually late in arriving, since I overslept. It turned out fine though. It was Kody, Michelle, Kevin, Stephen, Tyler, Ed, Dan Martin, and myself. We went to a party afterwards at one of Kody's friend's places. I was actually fairly bored most of the time, but that was because I decided not to drink anything. So many people there were wasted out of their minds. Ah, yes, a prime example: Stephen Donaldson. Hah, the poor guy was literally about to fall over after he played a game of Wizard Staff with Dan Martin. He got sick and started throwing up and from there it was all downhill. Tyler and I stayed with him for the most part to make sure he didn't get into any trouble or throw up on himself. All in all, it was more fun watching these people get wasted and do all sorts of funny shit. For example, Kody's brother, Kyle, threw his shirt and shoes into the fire, followed by pouring beer all over himself and dancing on top of a car. Like Stephen, however, the poor guy ended up getting so sick he was throwing up for a good hour. Lemme tell ya, the night of "sleep" that followed said party was pretty bad. Tyler, Anthony and I ended up sleeping in the back of Anthony's Jeep Liberty, and I barely slept at all. Most of the night I was trying to find a good position to attempt to sleep in. I probably only slept for about an hour or so. Ed and I woke up at about 5:30 and woke the rest of the gang up to drive back to Kody's house. Unfortunately for us, the house was locked, so we had to sleep in our cars, yet again, until Kody's mom opened the house after she woke up. We stumbled in the house when the time came, and we tried to get some sleep in before we had to go home. I left soon after and was on the road. I actually did a bunch of yard work after I got home haha. Fairly unexpected.

I started back up with drum lessons today. I wanted to get back into it because my technique is diminishing. I think I'll be able to get better over the summer. I still enjoy playing drums just as much as I always have though.

I've decided to watch Avatar: The Last Airbender in it's entirety. Thus, I've started torrenting the series, and it should be done by tomorrow. I saw a preview for the feature film in the theaters yesterday, and it sparked my interest. I figured it'd be good to get the series out of the way before the movie, so that's exactly what I'll do.

My room's just about fully organized now. I'm truly a sucker for aesthetics, so I like to have everything neat and organized. I've brought my fridge back down, and also added a little bookcase to store my books and magazines. I've got the wallscrolls back up and the swords are looking awesome as always. I want to get another wallscroll or poster to take up some of the unused wall space. We'll see what I end up deciding on.

My newfound interest in hockey is truly a good change of pace for me. Ever since Zach got me into the flyers, I've been watching just about every game. I now have a greater appreciation for the sport, and realized it's very interesting to watch. I'm hoping they'll make it to the finals!

Well, guess that's it for today. I'll be back hopefully later this week to fill in some more gaps.

'Til Then...
